eBay is making a MAJOR change to take on Vinted and Depop - and it's great news ... trends now
eBay is making a massive change in the UK that could be great news if you're trying to sell some old clothes online.
From today, all second-hand clothes sold over the digital marketplace will be free from buying and selling fees.
That means you will be free to flog your old clothes without having to pay eBay's 13.22 per cent fees.
The change may help eBay take on its newer rivals, Vinted and Depop, which have both waived seller fees.
Kirsty Keoghan, General Manager of Global Fashion for eBay said: 'Free fashion selling has come at the right time for a nation sitting on billions of pounds worth of unwanted clothes.'
eBay has now waived buying and selling fees for all second-hand clothing with the exception of sneakers, watches, handbags, and jewellery
eBay has announced that it will waive all extra charges for pre-owned fashion including listing, final value, and the new regulatory fee.
Second-hand clothing includes everything from items that have been worn for years up to pieces of clothing that are new with tags and have never been worn.
This will even apply to items that were listed on eBay before April 8, meaning it will now be much cheaper to buy clothes over the platform.
The only exceptions to the new rules will be for trainers, watches, handbags, and jewellery which will retain the existing
